How to eliminate the F02 error in Whirlpool dryer?

Error: F02

The F02 error in Whirlpool dryers can indicate two different issues depending on the display and symptoms:

• F02 – Keyboard failure (User interface)
• F02 / flash* 2nd pilot – Failure or data conflict

Causes and Solutions

1. Keyboard failure – User interface

Cause: A button is stuck on the keyboard on one of the two user interface control sets on the console.

Solution: If you cannot release the stuck button, replace the user interface control assembly that contains the stuck button. This will restore proper function to the dryer’s console.

2. Failure or data conflict in main control module

Cause: A data conflict detected in the main control module.

Solution: This issue requires specialized intervention. Only a Whirlpool technician with the appropriate reprogramming tools can resolve it. You should:

1. Apply the service restart procedure as recommended in the user manual.
2. If the problem persists, reprogram the main controller using the ESAM module.
3. If reprogramming does not solve the issue, replace the main control unit.
